BALTIMORE, L.
BROOKLYN. Sept 1.-THE game scheduled to
be played at Baltimore was played at Washing
ton Park to day. 1t proved to be uninteresting.

as though afraid of the ball. The Batimores
folded in irst-cass style and batted we'll when
hits were of benefit. All of their seven hits were
clean. Brooklyns hits were scattered. and
several occasions when hit would have been
valuable it was lacking. Mr.. Sullivan was a lit
tie off in some OF his decisions but generally he
did we'll Score:
